scd1 (mouse)

A939572 is stearoyl-CoA desaturase1 (SCD1) inhibitor with IC50 values of <4 nM for mSCD1 and 37 nM for hSCD1.

CAY10566 shows excellent cellular activity in blocking the conversion of saturated long-chain fatty acid-CoAs (LCFA-CoAs) to monounsaturated LCFA-CoAs in HepG2 cells (IC50=7.9 nM or 6.8 nM). CAY10566 is a potent, orally bioavailable and selective stearoyl

XEN723 is a potent thiazolylimidazolidinone Stearoyl-CoA Desaturase (SCD1) inhibitor(IC50s of 45 and 524 nM in mouse and HepG2 cell, respectively).

PFM046 is an antagonist of the liver X receptor (LXR), effectively inhibiting the activation of LXRα and LXRβ, with IC50 values of 2.04 μM and 1.58 μM respectively. It reduces the expression of SCD1 and FASN while increasing ABCA1 expression, and demonstrates antitumor activity in mouse models.

MK-8245 is a liver-targeting SCD inhibitor for human SCD1 (IC50: 1 nM) and for rat mouse SCD1 (IC50: 3 nM), with anti-diabetic and anti-dyslipidemic function.

MK-8245 trifluoroacetate is a phenoxy piperidine isoxazole derivative functioning as a potent, liver-targeting stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD) inhibitor, demonstrating significant anti-diabetic and anti-dyslipidemic effects. It showcases high specificity and efficacy against SCD1 across various species, with IC50 values of 1 nM for human SCD1 and 3 nM for both rat and mouse SCD1. MK-8245's mechanism includes a tetrazole acetic acid moiety that facilitates liver-targeting through OATPs recognition. Its inhibition potency in rat hepatocyte assays (IC50 of 68 nM) surpasses that in HepG2 cell assays devoid of active OATPs (IC50 of ~1 μM), highlighting its liver specificity. Moreover, MK-8245 exhibits over 100,000-fold selectivity against Δ-5 and Δ-6 desaturases in comparative assays. In vivo studies reveal MK-8245's preferential liver distribution in mice, rats, dogs, and rhesus monkeys, underscoring its potential for minimizing adverse effects in non-target tissues. Additionally, its administration in eDIO mice before glucose challenges significantly improves glucose clearance, indicating its therapeutic promise in diabetes management.
